NFC Sensor Tags

Battery Free Near Field Communication sensor family

Wireless and battery free sensor data with standard NFC.

The NFC sensor family works with external sensors, meaning the items below are just examples of what our technology can do for you. Should any of our evaluation boards spark your interest but you need a different sensor or magnitude to be measured, our team is ready to assist you in creating custom solutions based on this technology. We understand that your business may have unique needs, and we’re here to tailor these products to meet your specific requirements.

evaluation board

EVAL tag Humidity

The EVAL-SNFC-RHAT evaluation board is built around NFC and sensors. It is powered by wirelessly powered by NFC from a reader or your phone and, when energyzed, the tag broadcasts NFC to the reader or phone. This board includes a relative humidity and temperature sensor for humidity and temperature measurements.
